Chapter 400 As they entered the treatment room, they found a young girl suffering from persistent high fever and intermittent chills.
Bernard was treating her with several nurses, but his frustrated expression suggested he was struggling with the case.
Dr.
Aicker, whats the meaning of this? Bernard asked unhappily when he saw Andrew.
This patient is under my care.

Dr.
Lloyd, if its not a viral infection, what is it? Marcus asked eagerly.

Surrounded by vegetation or farmland, with lots of mosquitoes ? Marcus eyes widened in surprise .
Thats exactly right.
Our villa is on the rural outskirts of Jayrodale, surrounded by farmland.
But what does that have to do with Lucys condition ? 1/2 +35 BONUS Chapter 400 Everything, Andrew explained. Lucy has malaria from a mosquito bite.
